TL;DR: The present data indicate that circulating concentrations of activin A vary according to age; furthermore, men older than 50 years have greater concentrations than women, and this changes, which occur irrespectively of FSH concentrations, indicate that circulateactivin A is not a hormone of the reproductive axis.
Chronic HCV infection is a risk of atherosclerosis. Role of HCV and HCV-related steatosis.
Luigi Elio Adinolfi,Luciano Restivo,Rosa Zampino,Barbara Guerrera,Amedeo Lonardo,Laura Ruggiero,Francesco Riello,Paola Loria,Florio A +8 more
TL;DR: HCV infection is a risk factor for earlier and facilitated occurrence of CA via viral load and steatosis which modulate atherogenic factors such as inflammation and dysmetabolic milieu.
Cardiovascular and systemic risk in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease - atherosclerosis as a major player in the natural course of NAFLD.
TL;DR: It is concluded that non-alcoholic fatty liver disease is a complex health problem with implications far beyond the liver that may cause a significant global health burden and the assistance of patients with NAFLD impacts on the work of physicians from many different medical specialties.
Ultrasonographic fatty liver indicator, a novel score which rules out NASH and is correlated with metabolic parameters in NAFLD.
Stefano Ballestri,Amedeo Lonardo,Dante Romagnoli,Lucia Carulli,Luisa Losi,Christopher P. Day,Paola Loria +6 more
TL;DR: It is hypothesized that sonographic grading of steatosis will correlate with metabolic and pathologic changes of NASH and this work demonstrated that this correlation was true.
Effect of the selective expansion of cholic acid pool on bile lipid composition: Possible mechanism of bile acid induced biliary cholesterol desaturation
TL;DR: The effect of cholic acid pool expansion on biliary lipid composition was investigated in 21 subjects with cholesterol gallstones and in 11 of 21 subjects (group I) cholic Acid pool expanded two-threefold, whereas deoxycholic acid Pool increased only slightly.
